In 2020, DLUHC’s Local Digital Collaboration Unit made funding available for data and digital projects to help local authorities in England with their COVID-19 recovery and renewal efforts.
This government funding of up to £800,000 in total was aimed at supporting Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) projects that sought to combat the challenges faced by local government as a direct result of COVID-19.
The Challenge is now closed, but you can read about the successful projects in this blog post. You can also follow the progress of the funded projects and view the project outputs.
